There is no filesystem check after the filesystem is created by the PS3, the root of the problem seems to be at the time the PS3 tryes to do the filesystem check it goes out of resources (either memory or reserved space for the filesystem table) so the filesytem check is not completed successfully. In the practice this means you cant run that filesystem checks, but the filesystem errors are going to happen (everybody in CFW is used to freezes and crashes of the PS3, is very usual and normal, not much harmfull because the filesystem checks fixes this problems created by crashes and freezes of the PS3), because you cant use the filesystem check that errors are going to cummulate and there is a point when the PS3 is not able to boot and is going to force you to format the hdd. This filesystem checks are critical, without them soon or later the filesystem is going to die.

HDD HPA[edit source]

Good test cutting the hdd capacity with HPA, very interesting, but you need to mention if it passes the "filesystem check" (you can force it from recovery menu as a test). Is important to add this info next to what you wrote in wiki because if is not passed successfully then the hdd is not really fuly supported

Hi, accident or not but still it does format via official way on 4.46 OFW firmware and which i believe during/after format there must be some kind of file system check too as always on OS's (read; my knowledge is very limited). For now i am not personally interested to go back just to test that one extra thing (extra application behaviour) myself (wiping hdd etc) so i will leave it to others as i don't have PS3 programming/system knowledge so i can't agree or disagree even with your claim based on talking else than i have PS3 with 2Tb hdd inside with operational condition now. Main thing was to disagree the claim they don't work with proof that they do (on limited way) for now until CFW devs takes a detailed look on why or why not which was my main goal at providing details. As i can't myself work on it to make it work fully (formatting etc) on 4.82 etc even though i know something on programming. Not my personal interest to put time there for now plus i could not help enough myself. Thanks!'
